Creator

This morning I woke up and I knew that it was going to be a good day. I climbed out of bed and peeked my head out the window, the smell of spring swept through my nostrils. Oh yes, this was a good day.

Creator.

Do you have stop and think about the fact that you were created? I am a creation, created by a God who is completely good, and perfect, and kind, and loving. The thought blows me away. Not only am I a creation, but I am uniquely different from anyone else on the planet, and I was made with a specific purpose.

Romanowski does a beautiful job of explaining these concepts. To be human is to be God's image bearer. Whoa. As Christians we should be creating the most magnificent pieces of art because we have this knowledge. Yet, many times it seems like we lack the ability to do so. Madeleine L'Engle says this, "We are human and humble and of the earth, and we cannot create until we acknowledge our createdness." We MUST acknowledge our createdness, our creator.

There is a lot of good out there in the wide wide world. Good maybe not because it is coined "christian", but good because everything that God created is good. We have to make an effort to see it.
